NFL Midseason Awards

Most Valuable Player, Peyton Manning - Sure the other guys listed as runners up can all make a case, but none can validly eclipse Peyton. Not only is the Colts defense porous, not only did the offense lose a possible Hall of Fame Rb, but Peyton has captained two game winning drives in the final seconds and captained them with ease. Peyton has been the best player in the NFL, simple as that. Runners Up: Drew Brees, LT, LJ

Least Valuable Player, Three Day Old Cheeseburger - Big Ben single handedly sank the Steelers game against the Raiders and he certainly didn't help in several of the other losses this season. Hate to keep chirping on him every week, but he's terrible every week and despite missing game 1 and half of the Falcon game he leads the league in INTs by 2 with 14. Runners Up: Daunte Culpepper, Oakland Offensive Line

Defensive Rookie of the 1/2, Demeco Ryans - Once again go me, I predicted atleast one thing right prior to the season starting. Demeco is 4th in the NFL in tackles and is making a solid impact on the Texans defense. Runners Up: Elvis Dumervil, Donte Whitner.

Offensive Rookie of the 1/2, Marques Colston - Man I wish I had the forsite that the Saints had and drafted him last with my last pick in my fantasy league. I wonder who the last 7th round draft choice to make the pro bowl in their rookie season was. Runners Up: Laurence Maroney, Joseph Addai

Useless Rookie of the 1/2, Jay Cutler - Lets look at the Broncos for a second, they are 6-2 and a viable Superbowl Contender this season. Instead of using their 1st round pick to improve their chances of progressing to the Superbowl this season, they used it on the future, and while Cutler may end up being an elite QB when its all said and done, he is not helping this squad now, and this squad could use a 1st round caliber corner to go opposite Champ Bailey. See Reggie Wayne 3 tds two weeks ago. Runners Up: Tons of Injury Victims from DeAngelo Williams, Maercedes, Vernon, Greenway, etc.

Coach of the 1/2, Sean Payton - Congrats goes out to Payton and the brass behind the Saints current turnaround. Not only are they 6-2 when they had little to no expectations coming into the season, but they effectively have a franchise QB, WR, 2 RBs set for the future. The Saints are looking like they aren't just a 1/2 wonder. Runners Up: Tony Dungy, Mike Holmgren

Dumb Ass of the 1/2, Tom Walsh - We're going behind the scenes and selecting the Raiders Offensive coordinator who is on his way to setting profund levels of seasonal attrition. For your sake hopefully you have yet to watch a Raider game, if you have my apologies and I hope you have recovered. Runners Up: Art Shell, Bill Cowher.

Passes Most Likely to Find Grass, Bruce Gradkowski - Bruce is master of throwing the uncatchable ball. Not only is he throwing at a barely over 50% clip, but his passes are so out there that he has only one INT as well. Half of his passes are caught by the numbers on the field. Runner Up: Matt Leinart, Vince Young, Andrew Walter

Momentary Loss of Sanity, John Fox - Fox decided to throw away the a game in week 2 when the Panthers played against the Minnesota Vikings and he momentarily lossed brain cells or consciousness and decided it was a good idea for Chris Gamble to run a Music City Miraclesque play which resulted in a lost fumble and a lost game.

Play of the Season, Vanderweenie and the Fieldgoal Block - Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory rarely happens but Vanderweenie the biggest choke artist of all time found a way to not only blow the game but lay all the blame on his offensive line. With a rough schedule remaining the Cowboys easily could find themselves on the outside looking in thanks to Vanderweenie and the ensuing madness. Runners Up: Jerricho's Matrix walk, Trent Green decapitated.

Punk of the 1/2, Albert Haynesworth - Come on could it go to anyone other than the head stomper? He's lucky he didn't blind the guy. Runners Up: Tyler Brayton, Pacman Jones.

Please Lord Let Him be Traded, Randy Moss - Remember when Randy Moss was great? Now stuck on the Raiders he is discontent and has a terrible quarterback so the chances of us see that crazy 60 yard hook and ladder he pulled against the Broncos are zero, and count me as one person who is not a fan of the neutering of Randy Moss. Runners Up: Bryant Young, Chris Chambers

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
